SIGNALTEK II

The IDEAL SignalTEK II Qualifier is a cost-effective alternative to traditional cable certifiers. Perfect for small- to medium-sized LANs, SignalTEK II qualifies that copper or fibre cabling is capable of supporting bandwidth-heavy Voice, Data, Video (VDV) and IP-based video surveillance applications over 10/100 Megabit or Gigabit Ethernet. SignalTEK II then generates documentation verifying network connectivity and job completion to initiate customer payment.  

Being a multifunctional device for both fibre and copper, SignalTEK II offers major cost savings, as it eliminates the need to purchase separate testers for different media. Also, because it troubleshoots throughput problems in existing installations, a separate transmission tester isn't required, presenting more savings for the contractor.
